I may have been through “SysFS” as well? In /sys/class you can setup char dev IO with a kernel module (and more). Very helpful for userspace <-> kernel communication (like DMA drivers for userspace applications)
Hmm yeah maybe it was /sys, it’s been so long I can’t remember.
I seem to recall echoing into a file to set some value which we then checked the value of in the kernel module code. It was just a hello world type of thing for a college class.
I seem to recall in an Operating Systems class we wrote a kernel module and communicated with it through the proc interface?
